Tiger Woods can deal with the trials and tribulations of Augusta better than anyone - but Paul McGinley feels there'll be no sensational winning comeback for him at the Masters.

Woods has risen from the ashes with four top 12 finishes in the last six Tour events, coming close to winning the Valspar Championship and then threatening to go head to head with Rory McIlroy at Bay Hill before his challenge was undone by an out of bounds drive late in his final round.

But McGinley reckons he's not quite there yet.

"The thing about it is, everyone loves a comeback," said the Dubliner.

"Hollywood loves a comeback.

"We all love the underdog, we all love the guy fighting against the odds.

"We all know how low Tiger has fallen and it would be monumental to come back and win.

"I personally think he's heading in the right direction, but I don't know if he's ready to win that major championship yet. I think he needs a few more tournaments under his belt."

McGinley has stated that the key to winning at Augusta is dealing best with the history of the place.

"Tiger Woods has proved it better than anybody in the current crop of players," he acknowledged.

"It's dealing with history and dealing with what's happened at Augusta. It's played at the same golf course, and we've all been watching it for years and years.

"It plays on your mind. There are so many stories we have seen over the years on the different holes.

"One of the great things about Augusta over the years is everyone knows the golf course as well as the players.

"They know the pin positions, they know the challenges that are ahead. So it's so exciting. It's the only major golf course where the course says the same year on year".
